SUMMARY:MREA Solstice Celebration – Custer
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\nA Gathering of Education and Community\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSaturday, 13 June, 1:00 pm – 9:00 pm\n\n\n\n7558 Deer Rd, Custer, WI 54423\n\n\n\nJoin the MREA for our Solstice Celebration . Hosted at our headquarters in Custer, WI, this free event brings our community together to explore clean energy topics, share practical resources, and spark actionable change.\n\n\n\nThe MREA was founded in 1990 amid the uncertainty of the Gulf War. More than three decades later, we find ourselves asking many of the same questions that inspired our beginnings: How do we reduce our reliance on fossil fuels? How do we accelerate the adoption of renewable energy? And how do we come together — as friends, neighbors, and communities — to keep moving forward and build a more resilient Midwest?\n\n\n\nJoin us in celebrating the power of the sun and people. We’ll gather on the MREA grounds to address urgent/current energy topics and share resources to utilize at home and in communities. Local and regional partners will participate to answer questions and connect with you on different ways to get engaged in what you care about. Live music, food, and beverages will provide the power you need to enjoy this semi-outdoor event. Come for the education; stay for the connection.\n\n\n\nThis event is free and open to all. If you’re able, we invite you to support our work by becoming an MREA member ( https://midwestrenew.org/membership/ ) or making a donation ( https://midwestrenew.org/donate/ ).\n\n\n\nDetails:\n\n\n\nMREA Membership Meeting\n\n\n\nYou’re invited to the annual General Membership Meeting — learn about the MREA’s 2026 initiatives, recent progress, and what’s ahead. All are welcome to attend, ask questions, and share feedback.\n\n\n\nGrow Solar Power Hour\n\n\n\nThinking about going solar? Join MREA’s Grow Solar Power Hour to learn the basics, explore how solar can work for your home or business, and access group-buy savings — no obligation, just clear next steps.\n\n\n\nEnergy in Your Township Presentation\n\n\n\nHave questions about utility-scale solar, data centers, or rising energy costs? Join the MREA’s Energy in Your Township presentation for clear, expert insights and open, community-driven discussions.\n\n\n\nMREA Grounds and Native Gardens Tour\n\n\n\nThe MREA’s grounds are home to PV systems, EV car charging, solar batteries, a solar pergola, native plants, and much more. From solar and energy efficiency to the sustainability provided by our gardens, we can’t wait to show you all that the grounds have to offer. Nichole Good from Generation Native Plants will join us on the tour of the grounds to speak in depth about the function and benefits of native gardens.\n\n\n\nCelebrating Biodiversity by Gardening with Native Plants\n\n\n\nWhat if you could regenerate soil, sequester carbon, feed pollinators and wildlife, and restore ecosystems right in your own backyard? During this presentation, Nichole, owner of Generation Native Plants, will share how you can with native plants! Learn about how utilize native plants in home landscaping along with the connection between healthy ecosystems and flood mitigation.\n\n\n\nLive Bands\n\n\n\nRock out with two local bands — Cherry Glow and Big Oil!\n\n\n\nRegister here… ( https://midwestrenew.org/solstice-celebration-rsvp-form/ )\n\n\n\nwww.midwestrenew.org ( http://www.midwestrenew.org/ )\n
